First read it in 2022. Second time reading in 2025. Really enjoyed it! Didn’t fully remember the story from before but wanted to refresh my memory before reading the next 2 books. Cried and laughed. A few frustrating parts:

WHY DID MANCHEE HAVE TO DIE

and

Aaron’s whole preacher story/ why he was chasing them was a little confusing/ complex at times

. I can’t wait to start the next book :) it was hard to put down!!
